I love, love decorating for Christmas. I mean who doesn´t right? We have three boxes of Christmas ornaments and I followed the movers around when they packed our things making sure they didn´t make a mistake and send them off to storage. It was one of the most important thing about the packing and the moving for me.
We decided to buy a fake tree this year even though it is possible to buy a live one. Somehow it seemed strange to buy a live tree in Mexico though. It seemed sad with all thesee beautiful pines sweltering on the sidewalks, shedding their needles like drops of sweat.
I kind of like my fake tree. I can finally put all my ornaments on the tree without crowding. I could never afford such a large live tree in France. And if I burn a little pine oil nearby on the table you can hardly tell the difference.
I´m going to miss my tree if we head to France for the holidays. Mother in law doesn´t really decorate for Christmas and it won´t be the same.
